About this listen

 In episode 3 of Coco-Ngāti we kōrero with a model, radio host and community champion who is loud and proud to be a Cook Islands Ghanaian woman.  Ernestina Bonsu-Maro talks to us about walking with her head held high in her dark skin, growing up in Mangere, South Auckland and how she stays connected to her African roots. This talented mixed-race wahine and her two siblings were raised by a fierce single Mum who taught her to proudly speak her Pukapukan language.
